Everybody loves a little shopping therapy when on holiday. Luang Prabang isn't a shopper's paradise but the local night market certainly fills a need. There's plenty on offer - fabrics (including clothes, sarongs, bags), carved wooden- and paper-based handicraft, figurines, souvenirs, etc. Visiting twice during our stay, my wife found a nice laptop bag that she liked while the kids enjoyed the experience of looking for good bargains. Speaking of bargains, things aren't necessarily as cheap as one might think but practice your bargaining skills and you might just do all right. The night market is located just a short walk from a small food court but street food stalls scattered in side streets lining the market catered to those feeling peckish.

Amazing place for local gifts and great prices. The gifts included clothes, bags, coasters, mats, paper umbrellas and nearby there were places to drink and eat. Well worth a visit if you are staying in Luang Probang

While the Luang Prabang Night Market has become a bit tainted with mass produced goods and predictably fake antiques, it still offers a better mix of authentic crafts than most markets in Asia. Especially good are the textiles, woven material, quilts, and embroidery. The wood craft is also good and there are some interesting paintings and artwork. Vendors are comfortable with bargaining and prices are relatively very reasonable. When we visiting in January, the place was crowded with tourists, but still pleasant.

Much cleaner in the food area that the market in Vientiane. Has some good music going and vendors are not overly pushy. Not a huge variety for sale. Loved the fixed store on the end by the food part that sold flavored whiskey - great small bottles ideal for gifts for family back home.

My hotel being located five minutes away from here, I saw the changes here. In the evening, its lively, full of people selling stuffs, shoppers bargaining with them, etc. Stuffs sold are mostly clothings, few are selling jewelries, art works, vases, etc. In the morning and during the day, the vendors are gone, their merchandises tucked somewhere near this area. Attractions near the Night Market: Temples, National Theater, Palace, stairs to the mountain’s stupa and views. Highly recommended to visit.

When we visited Luang Prabang's ancient town, we were interested in both the night and morning markets, though the morning market seemed more authentic. The night market is situated in the heart of Luang Prabang, just a short walk from our hotel. Open every day from 5 PM to 10 PM, the major offerings of thiswalking market are local produce, handicrafts, mementos, and food and beverages. There's a large food court at the end of the street, offering a huge selection of dishes at extremely low costs.

Big variety of local product …especially fabrics of different tribes origins …some classic souvenirs like Buddha status of dozens variations. Went 3 times bought twice. Also night food market with broad variety. Definitely a to-do when in Luang Prabang.

If there’s a morning market, there’s a night market. Luckily, the night market was just a few steps from the place I was staying. Oh my goodness! So much things to see. Very colorful and interesting. Most vendors selling the same stuff. There was one vendor who was the only one selling traditional dolls. I walked this night market twice, just to get my exercise and to kill time. Vendors were all friendly, inviting me to check out their products. I bought 2 pencil pouches, several teas and the dolls.

The market is one kilómeter long with vendors on both sides. Good place for Laotian souvenirs. Shop around, compare and barter as prices will vary. The stalls all look the same selling textiles, stuff made from old bombs and other trinkets. There is a good court with good burgers. We felt very safe

Must-do in Laos! I loved the funny sayings on the coin purses and the peace bomb jewelry, spoons, and keychains made from UXOs dropped on Laos during the war. (It’s possible these are not authentic but it was worth supporting the locals in my opinion.) tons of street food stalls, rain or shine. I got a traditional Laos outfit at one of the tents and the lady was not pushy at all, which I appreciated!
